1992 Chevrolet Lumina Z34 3.4l 5-speed Manual on 2040-cars

Year:1992 Mileage:225000
Location:

United States

United States

Up for sale is a 1992 Chevrolet Lumina Z34 with a rare 5-speed manual transmission (Getrag 284). The car has about 225k miles on it, but the engine has only 120k miles on it. The transmission is original. This car has been my daily driver for years. I don’t have enough time to dedicate to this car and I’d like to find it a new home. I’m looking for someone within the Z34 or wbody community to buy this car and keep it going for years to come.

The car overall condition is fair. It is a daily driver, but it could use some work (see “issues” below). I will also include various new parts I accumulated over the years that I never installed or never needed (such as a water pump and brake pads, although they are not needed).

Clear title. Cash buyer, in-person only. Car is located in Minneapolis MN.  Feel free to ask questions.

New Parts & Recent Work:

Brand new battery

Brand new ignition module

New starter

New rear struts

Newer rear brake lines, rotors, calipers, and pads

Timing belt (205k miles)

Clutch (155k miles)

Has NGK iridium plugs

Has cold air intake and cone filter

 

Issues:

-Shifting issues – it requires more force than usual to move the shifter to the left side to shift into 1st and 2nd. Each gear still works and there is no grinding. Both shifter linkage cables appear to be fine, so I assume it is an issue with the internal gear selector forks.

 

-Headlights (needs dimmer switch, which will be included but needs to be installed – in the meantime the high beams work)

 

-Parking brake (needs new cables and lever – have parts, just need to be installed)

 

-Needs new ABS sensors (I’ve been driving without them for years)

 

-Minor oil leak(s)

 

-Driver’s side door latch and lock (must remain unlocked in order to function properly – I have a replacement from a salvage yard that needs to be installed)

 

-Driver’s side power window (I have a new motor and regulator that need to be installed)

 

-A/C (not sure if it needs a Freon refill or a new compressor)

 

-Likely needs alignment

 

-Will need outer tie rods soon (have parts, just need to be installed)

 

-Trunk leaks small amount of water occasionally (have new weather stripping, just needs to be installed)

 

-Catalytic convertor rattles a bit, nothing significant.

 

-Head unit needs to be reinstalled (alpine CDA 7863 included)

 

-Rear speakers need to be reinstalled or aftermarket speakers with boxes can be hooked up to existing aftermarket wires)

 

-Rust forming over wheel wells and a couple other common areas

A hybrid and electric Corvette, plus we drive the Ioniq 5 | Autoblog Podcast #728

Fri, May 6 2022

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Zac Palmer. Zac drove the electric 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Greg drove the fire-breathing 2022 Maserati Levante Trofeo. The two dive deep into the relatively heavy news week by starting off with a discussion about the upcoming hybrid Corvette before chatting about what the electric Corvette might be like. They have a chat about the possibility of Porsche and Audi officially joining the Formula 1 field. Then, Greg and Zac get into some quick-hitting news to round out the segment by dissecting the updated Kia Soul (now without a turbo), the 30th Anniversary Edition Land Rover Defender and the new CEO at Aston Martin. Following the news and drive reviews, they rope in Senior Editor, Green John Beltz Snyder to give them a quick download of what went down at the first drive for the 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning. Finally, they reach into the mailbag and answer some questions from someone who is less than pleased about infotainment systems in some new cars. And lastly, the gang hears back from someone they helped out in a prior Spend My Money segment on the podcast. Send us your questions for the Mailbag and Spend My Money at: Podcast@Autoblog.com.

Chevy Colorado, GMC Canyon get updated tachometers due to graphical error

Sun, Feb 8 2015

After James Bearing bought a Chevrolet Colorado, he noticed a discrepancy between the truck's spec sheet and the truck's tachometer: Chevrolet said 3.6-liter V6 in the little pickup produces 305 horsepower at 6,800 rpm, but the the tachometer indicates a redline at 6,500 rpm. So either he wasn't making as much power as he was promised, or the tachometer display was incorrect. Bearing said he asked Chevy about it but got no response. Until now. A General Motors spokesman said the rev limiter is indeed set for 6,800 rpm, but the tach graphics "are slightly off" in the Colorado and the GMC Canyon, and submitted an SAE horsepower certification to back him up. If you're wondering how such a thing got past quality control... well, let's just say you're not alone. GM is going to fix "the graphics on future trucks," which makes it sound like Bearing will just have to learn to live with the indicated redline he's got. He could always pretend he's driving a sleeper, with four more ponies waiting to be unlocked in the danger zone for those who dare.

2016 Chevy Colorado Duramax gets 31 mpg highway

Mon, Nov 9 2015

The 2016 Chevrolet Colorado Duramax and its similarly diesel-powered GMC Canyon sibling are the most fuel-efficient new trucks on the market in America. The Environmental Protection Agency estimates 31 miles per gallon highway, 22 mpg city, and 25 mpg combined for two-wheel-drive Colorado and Canyon diesels. That's just good enough to take the pickup fuel-economy title from the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel HFE, which carries EPA estimates of 29 mpg highway, 21 mpg city, and 24 mpg combined. Four-wheel-drive models offer slightly lower economy figures of 29/20/23, respectively. Drivers can cover quite some distance, too – the GM twins' 21-gallon tanks mean a maximum range of 651 miles. <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p> Diesel's reputation may be somewhat tarnished in the US after Volkswagen's emissions scandal, but Chevy wants to assure potential customers that there are no tricks with the Colorado's figures. The pickup's engine features NOx-reducing tech like exhaust gas recirculation, and the EPA and California Air Resources Board recently chose the truck to take the additional step of real-world emissions tests. The 2.8-liter Duramax four-cylinder with 181 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque had no problems with the more stringent evaluation, and "the agency expressed no issues or concerns," according to the company's statement. The diesel Colorado goes on sale this fall, and the Duramax costs $3,730 over a similarly equipped V6 model. We've gone ahead and included dueling press releases from both Chevy and GMC below for your reading pleasure.

The EPA-estimated highway fuel economy for 2016 Colorado four-wheel drive diesel is 29 mpg. The EPA has issued a Certificate of Conformity for the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax diesel. The agency expressed no issues or concerns following its recent extensive testing and evaluation of the emission control system on the Colorado Duramax diesel.
